I am sick of this lousey life-I got paid today and I have 20 dollars left for the next 2 weeks but not really my car payment is due in 4 days so I am actually short 320 dollars. I would like to take my kids to the carnival or a movie or to the zoo but as it is-I never have money to do those sorts of things. They need clothes I need clothes forget about groceries. Then the job situation, the other people who are in my category make between 2-7 dollars more per/hr than me. The management said that their wages are frozen until the "new hires" like me can catch up. I have been working here for over seven years. We don't get cost of living raises so I don't know how I am going to "catch up". Then my ex always has to have his way. I keep trying to keep believing and keep hoping but it does not seem to be getting any better. I used to try to stay cheerful no matter what but I am really tired I feel like crying and screaming right now. Have you ever seen a whole bunch of ants surround a wounded grasshoper or butterfly. That is how I feel-like the poor animal that is being eaten alive. Please help me Lord Jesus!
father lord, hold us close and grant strength and wisdom for each of us to battle the many challenges in life. father bring relief and shine your face upon all who seek you out. praise you LORD! in jesus name amen
Dear Lord, we pray for Marianne and ask that you will continue to be with her. Dear Lord, intervene and intercede for her in all these difficulties she is facing. We pray and ask all this in Jesus Name Amen.
This prayer request from Marianne really hit home with me. I try not to complain but I have had the same experience..watching my direct deposit go into my account only to see it make up a negative balance and leave little left for the next two weeks. I can 100% feel for you. God will provide. Why things happen I don't know. I personally am so frustrated and at my wit's end that I forget the most powerful there is , is going to pull me through. Hang in there..Your prayers will be answered.
God, I know you have already answered Marianne's prayer. Pleasestay with her and comfort her until she receives yhour blessings.
Through your Son Jesus Christ..Amen
* Emergency Encouragement Absence Judgment/Condemnation*
*Discouragement*I must be ever alert to the feeling of discouragement, which is a sin. Discouragement says, "I refuse to accept God's plan for my life." Discouragement is the result of not letting God alone. It is a tragedy that I accept Jesus as my "Lord" and then grow discouraged because He frustrates my expectations. If Jesus is my Lord, then Romans 8:28 must always be my textbook. It is impossible to have one without the other.I must reckon with the causes of discouragement and see them in their proper prospective. Am I criticized by others? Let me rejoice! Do I not realize that God uses diamonds to sharpen diamonds? Let me remember that it was criticism that started Joseph on his way to Pharoah's throne; and God will let criticism put me on a throne also, *if* I Let Him.Am I suffering lack of success? Don't I real;ize that success is the result of God's careful timing, not mine? And don't I realize that if I am faithful where God put me, success is enevitable?Am I discouraged because the way is hard and painful/ if so, I must realize that God is preparing plowed ground to yield fruit a hundredfold. God will never give me a hard way without a "nevertheless afterward" (Hebrews 12:1, KJV). When I am in difficulty I must pray, "Lord, give me patience to wait for Your 'afterward.'"Am I harrassed by Satan, and are his whisperings getting to me? I must remember the history: everyone who ever listened to him suffered horrible defeat. I will*honor God by my *trust*; I will please Him, affirming: "All things [do] work together for good" (Romans 8:28, KJV). I believe that God will "go before [me] and will level the mountains;...[and] give [me] the treasures of darkness" (Isaiah 45:2-3, NIV).
"In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God for help; He heard my voice out of His temple, and my cry for help before Him came into His ears" (Psalm 18:6). In Jesus' name be delivered from despair! *AMEN*
Marianne ... just pour out all those frustrations to Jesus. cry it out ... scream it out ... however you get it out .... Jesus cares! There may be no iinstant fix to your financial problem, but Jesus is there beside you to fix your heart. To bring peace in the midst of your storm. I hug you in Jesus .... and if I were there beside you ... I would give you a big Jesus squeeze.Father God I pray for Marianne, my heart hurts with her. She is such a prayer warrior. Father God, I pray for this $20 to stretch into real miracle for her, that it would go much further thatn she can fathom. I pray for the gas in her vehicle to keep going, i pray for groceries to be brought to her, and I pray for her ex husband to have some mercy and help out. I pray you would pour down from heaven a fresh annointing on Marianne. Bless her Jesus ... amen and amen.Marianne , take the children (walk if possible) to a school yard, or a park, just so you can all breath some fresh air, and get your mind off the pressing issues for a few moments.In Jesus name ... we pess on
FATHER, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, WE ASK THAT YOU ENCOURAGE MARIANNE. YOU ARE BIGGER THAN ALL OF OUR PROBLEMS, BUT WHEN WE GET DISCOURAGED, IT'S HARD TO REMEMBER THAT. WE PRAY PROSPERITY, JOY AND PEACE OVER MARIANNE AND WE CONSIDER IT DONE. OH THANK YOU FATHER, FOR ALWAYS HELPING US THROUGH THE TOUGH TIMES. WE GLORIFY YOUR NAME. AMEN.
boy-o-boy!! Can I relate to yer feeling! Got some of it myself! Father , I pray For this feeling to pass, I pray for counting it all joy. The journey gets kinda tough, eh? Oh Lord keep us in the praising mode, because You are all we have.
God, through Jesus' name we ask that Marianne's prayer be answered according to your will. Please provide for her and let all Your blessings flow down to her.
Lord, we lift Marianne up in prayer. Please comfort her. Please strengthen her. Lord, we know you are always with us if we just have faith. At times our faith waivers but I pray that you help her stay strong. Lord, hear her cries and let her know you will take these burdens from her. In your name we pray. Amen.
Father God please touch Marianne and give her the wisdom and means to clear her finances. Comfort her Lord and show her the way to go. God everything is possible through You. We pray for a blessing for her today. In Jesus name, Amen
